Okay, to get to the archived messages, the easiest way to do this is to use the Search Feature on GoatWorld. You can get there by going to the "Find What You Need" area at the top left of the Message Forum.

Now finding what you need takes a little more thought. If you have a word or phrase that applies to one of the messages, simply type that in the search box. For example, let's say a message contains the text "goat polio" - type in goat polio and hit enter. Every document on GoatWorld that has text containing goat polio will be displayed in a list. A little research will need to be done on your part to find the exact message you are looking for but there should not be that many to sift through.

Another tip: the search feature works with words that are complex. For example, if you type in a word like "a" or "the" or a simple word, the search will reveal no documents found because the word that you used is too common.

To get the most out of the search, you can also use the search index that displays every word contained within the index. This is helpful if you are searching for a name. But please understand that the index is very large and will take a few minutes at least to completely load.

If you have any more questions about this please just let me know.

Best regards,

Gary
